Hats and bonnets are still somewhat

Hats and bonnetS are still somewhat
overpowering in their effect. CapoteS,
toqueS and Princesse bonnets rise to an
imposing height, while on the other hand
some Of the newer hats for the promen-
AIDE are again very broad. All of these,
however, have an abundance of tower
ing trimmings in the shape of aigrettes,
ostrich plumes, gay birds from the ISL
and Of Trinidad, and beaded crestS and
palms, mingled with high loops of plush
or velvet.

An exchange tells us that the new
boxes Of fancy stationery are precisely
hafthe price that they we're when the
t.nfH Tor decorating note sheets was
comp raliyely new, and there are some
very pretty things among the winters
tiles. 4 heraldic beast, bearing some
faint likeness to stag, and set in the
centre at the top of the sheet, and an
other design in which two little doves
are regarding each other, are among
thenewest things. Eccentriclty appears
Principally in the envelopes, which are
oddly folded and open in unexpected
places. The decorations are in four
tntS, gold, silver, copper and greenish
copper and if a seal be set on the en-
Velope il should match these hues.

an CAoHdnge tells us the |
Ifollowing:
Il he late General Lawrence married
the beautiful widow of Lieutenant
hlngsbury of the regular army, who was
also slSter-in-law of General Buckper
OF Fort Donelson fame. The marriage
took place shortly after the war Mrs
hlngsbury having taken up her resi-
dence IN Newport. Gen. Buckner had
married Lieutenant Kingsbury's sister,
who died after few years of married
lite. Lieutenant kingsbury and his sis
ter were joint heirs to large fortune,
manly in Chicago real estate. Before
leaving for his post with the army in
Iennessee, General Buckncr had an IN
terV1eW with his brother-in-law and made
over to him allof Mrs. Buckner's estate.
This was to protect it from confscation.
but it was verbally understood between
them that the property was to be held in
trust. II General Buckner survived the
issue OF the approaching conflict it was
TO be returned to him. If not, it was to
be made over to his only child, Lille
Buckner.
Lieutenant Kingsbury fell mortally
-
wounded in one of the first battles of
Virginia. Realizing too late that he
had made no testamentary provision by
which Mrs. Buckner's property should
not 60 in with his own estate, he told to
a comrade the story of his agreement
with his sisters husband. For some
reason his dying wishes were either not
communicated to or were disregarded by
his wife, his only heir. and she entered
| into possession OF the entire property. The
war closed Gen. Buckner came back
to Louisville and asked of Mrs. Kings
bury the restoration of his daughters es-
tate. Mrs. Kingsbury refused to con-
slider the question, and suit of recovery
was brought. 1t was one OF the great
cases Of the day, and was finally, after
years of litigation, fully decided in Gen
eral Buckner's favor, His counsel was
Robert Wooley Of Louisville, brother
Of Colonel Charles Wooley of Cincin-
natl, and near connection by marriage
with Sallie Ward, the famous Southern
beauty 1t was said that his fee was
$Ioo, 900. Gen. Buckner ct once began
to extensively improve his Chicago prop
erty. The fire came, and in a day he
nas poorer by 100000. When, chow
ever, his daughter married Mr.. Morris

than touching the apple of the

any expense to the people. Among

of distributing the surplus TO tie sev-

the extravagant, corrupt and virions
economic policies which usually find
root in q congenial soil and grow to
large proportions under Republican
sway. There is an army Of officials TO
collect the revenue. and another army

There is a fine opportunity to tap the
Pactolean stream as it comes to the
Treasury, and as good when 1t passes
out again. Our neighbor DEVELOPS
a rare interest in the public veal, and
a rare integrity of purpose In joining
issues With his party, and advocating
some ju-ter and better method oil
dealing with the surplus. This Is not
good Republicanism, but it is sound
policy.

That the Democracy should be

of success. In the recent marvellous
and magnificent campaign here in
New Yolk, it was the unity Of the
democracy that made victory posi-

leading candidate who aroused pas
~ionaie and ardent enthusiasm that
made victory easy. What is needful
above al. other things in the National
contest of next year is unity; and
what in now most to be eschewed and
avoided is everything that tends to
create division, promote discord and
hinder unity New York Sun.

Los ANGELES grows go rapidly these
day. and requires SO vast an amount
u raw material Of all sorts that fam
Ines are becoming the law OF the land
in everything excepting what we ea'
and wear. At last this difficulty ha'
attacked even the press. At this date
there is paper famine at all our
doors, which renders it most difficult
. get out the several journals D.
promptly and artisticslly as they
shouli be. We are ourselver
Just now in q most disagreeable
hole Of this sort. 1t is partly due to
che freight blockade on the overland
routes and also largely to the great
increa se in our circulation. We find
ourselves compelled almost daily to
incr ease our numbers, and yet the
edition is all gone before the sun is
well up in the sky. The consequence
l. that we are driven to all sorts OF
expedients to obtain paper for ouI
daily issues. Odd sizes have
70 be used, requiring much
more presswork, and precluding the
use of our folder. Therefore. should
orr readers find the paper little late
h reaci,ing their doorsteps for few
mornings, they will exercise their GUS
tomary kind indulgence. Ii is a most
disagrecable thing to be forced thus
sften to make apologies; but really
the indulgence of the people is q
thing We are in some measure entitled
10 demand. All these troubles
are directly due to the many
isvos crowded upon u- by a
most discriminating and intelligent
people. Well, if we NAV beg for g
little longer exc else of patience on the
part Of our thousands Of readers, it
will be but short time when having
become settled in our new building
